The countdown is on to Business Travel Expo Africa 2027, South Africa‘s first dedicated business travel exhibition, bringing together the travel industry‘s leading suppliers and the corporate decision-makers who drive business travel spending.
Taking place on Friday, March 12, 2027 at Vodacom World in Midrand, Johannesburg, this exciting new event promises to be a game-changer for the corporate travel industry.
Attracting over 1 000 corporate travel buyers and bookers, more than 36 exhibitors and leading industry experts, Business Travel Expo Africa is designed to create one powerful marketplace where connections turn into commercial opportunities.
Travel suppliers: Your next big client could be waiting!
Airlines, hotels, travel management companies, car-rental providers, travel technology companies, transfer operators, visa specialists and other travel suppliers are invited to secure their exhibition stands and showcase their brands to a highly targeted corporate audience.
Unlike consumer travel exhibitions, Business Travel Expo Africa focuses exclusively on high-volume business travel, connecting exhibitors directly with procurement professionals, executive assistants, corporate bookers and business travel decision-makers.
For exhibitors, the opportunity is simple: meet more potential clients, showcase your products, strengthen relationships and generate valuable business leads – all under one roof, in one day.
Whether launching a new product, demonstrating cutting-edge technology or expanding your corporate client portfolio, this is an opportunity to put your business in front of the people who matter.
Not your average trade show!
Business Travel Expo Africa is breaking away from the traditional exhibition format, combining serious business opportunities with an energetic, engaging and memorable experience.
Visitors and exhibitors can look forward to:
- Exhibition Showcase: Discover leading travel brands, products, services and innovations.
- Speed Networking: Fast-paced introductions designed to spark valuable business relationships.
- Travel Passport Challenge: An interactive competition encouraging visitors to engage with exhibitors, collect stamps and enter an exciting prize draw.
- Expert Speakers & Panel Discussions: Insights into AI, travel technology, cost savings, traveller safety and emerging industry trends.
- Networking & Entertainment: Dedicated networking spaces, live music and drinks to keep the conversations flowing long after the day ends.
One day. Hundreds of connections. Endless possibilities.
In a relationship-driven industry, face-to-face engagement remains one of the most powerful ways to win business.
With complimentary admission for corporate travel buyers and bookers, Business Travel Expo Africa aims to bring a highly relevant audience directly to exhibitors, creating an environment where genuine conversations can develop into long-term commercial relationships.
Exhibition stands start from R15 500, with various stand sizes and sponsorship opportunities available to suit businesses looking to maximise their exposure.
As South Africa’s corporate travel industry continues to evolve, Business Travel Expo Africa offers suppliers an exciting new opportunity to be seen, be heard and be remembered.
